PhD student position in the Vision-to-ActionLaboratory will be supervised by Asli Ayaz and Vincent Bonin, atNeuro-Electronics Research Flanders in Leuven, Belgium, (NERF,). Description TheVision-to-Action Laboratory (Vincent Bonin (PI), Asli Ayaz, seniorscientist) studies the neural basis of vision and navigation anddevelops approaches to investigate neural circuits in health and Wefocus on representations and interconnected neural networks inthalamus and the cortex, how they are generated, turned intoaction, and impacted by disease and We tackle these questions atthe cellular neural circuit level combining neurophysiological andbehavioural recordings with circuit tracing in the We are looking for an enthusiastic PhD student to studyneural circuits of sensory selection in the mouse cortex and At anymoment, we are exposed to a multitude of sensory inputs, and ourbrain filters this information and processes only a small portionof it that is relevant to The appropriate sensory selection is alsorelevant in a clinical context such as autism spectrum disordersThis selective processing of information is suggested to arise viathe coordinated activity of multiple regions of the In thisproject, we aim to reveal neural pathways involved in the sensoryWe will apply advanced brain imaging and genetic circuit tracingtools in a well-controlled multisensory behavioural The selected fellow will join a close collaborating groupof postdocs and students focused on innate and acquired visualAlthough the broad roadmap for the project has been established,this PhD position is endowed with a high level of Fellows run theirown research projects and work closely with other lab members todevelop new assays and analyses, contributing with bothmethodological and conceptual Fellows have ample opportunities tointeract with researchers at NERF and partner labs at VIB and KUCareer advancement activities such as presentations atinternational scientific events, writing of funding proposals andorganization of workshops are strongly Profile Candidates with MSc degree inlife sciences, physical sciences or engineering, with a stronginterest in neuroscience and quantitative approaches are encouragedto Prior experience in electrophysiology, in vivo imaging,quantitative animal behaviour or in data analysis is anApplications outside the NERF PhD program are We seek a highly motivated individual with strongquantitative and technical skills and a collaborative Computationalscientists with interest in experimental neuroscience areencouraged to We offerOpportunity to do cutting edge science in a supportive andcollaborative The candidate will join the vibrant community ofpostdocs at NERF and VIB KU Leuven Center for Brain & DiseaseThe lab has a strong multidisciplinary team with expertise incortical and thalamocortical processing, large-scale and cellularresolution optical and electrical recordings, and is known for itsopen and collegial atmosphere and the strength of its collaborative State-of-the-art tools and facilities: Thelaboratory is equipped with dedicated surgical, behavioral, andviral vector facilities, multiple setups for multiphotonmicroscopy, widefield imaging, high-density electrode recordings(Neuropixels) and patterned-light Proximity to exciting researchinstitutes at the heart of NERF is within walking distance of KULeuven on the campus of imec, world-leader in nanoelectronicsLeuven is a short train ride away from Brussels at the heart ofThis is a fully funded position (4 years), however, PhD candidatesare expected to seek opportunity and apply to secure fellowship How to apply?
